Definitely want to check out Arkansas. The big debate now is how/when can I manage it. Just coming off of a long weekend taking the wife and both girls (under 2) from FL to NC to see family and it was a rough driving day. Might be rethinking my timeframe now...
Good tires make more of a difference then anything. You don't need some overly built expensive vehicle to go offroading and explore despite what instagram and youtube tells you. Pay attention to your driving, know what you are getting into, and just be smart. I've seen cars that didn't look...
Lack of personal responsibility and accountability....This is permeating every facet of our culture. When you tell people the government takes care of everything for you and nothing is your fault, it's no wonder people stop caring.
Hey everyone. Looking for a good option for a trip this summer/late summer. We did the Georgia traverse last summer and had a great time. We went mid august and despite the hurricane that rolled through while we were on the trail, it was still pretty warm at night. I am considering running...
I'm surprised to read that you had falcons and switched to the 6112/5160's. I was considering them heavily over the same bilstein setup for my f150 ad went with the bilsteins simply due to pricing. I love the setup but was always curious about other setups, so glad to hear it sounds like I...
My big thing is ventilation. I live in Florida, annoyingly enough i really only ever get enough time off during the summer months when all my clients tend to take vacation. That means warm weather, even if not in Florida. We did the Georgia traverse last year during august, and while it wasn't...
I would definitely avoid rancho and the like....
THere are some really great expensive setups out their like fox and king. That being said, i'm running bilstein 6112/5160's and love it. The price point is good, the performance is great. The only downside is they are not rebuildable, but for...
I'll have to look into both of those. I like the idea, and have looked at the gazelle tents for a while, but they do seem expensive. I wish Kelty made a larger tent. I love my kelty 2 person tent. All mesh and a good rain fly. Perfect ventilation, but clearly not big enough anymore. The last...
I believe its the fact that its a handheld with a removable antenna, and has the ability to be programmed to talk on those frequencies. Then again, the government doesn't care about stopping looters and rioters, so is anyone really going to come after you?
Hey everyone. Curious as to feedback on what people have had success with camping/overlanding with a family of 4 or larger and dogs. Last summer we did the Georgia traverse as a family of 3 and 2 dogs. I bought a coleman 6 person steel creek fast pitch tent. I liked it for what it was, and...
I would piggy back off of that by saying if you do add a dedicated hotspot, i would do it with a separate carrier then your phone. That way you are more likely to be covered. When i traveled frequently for work i would switch back and forth between my phone hotsppot and dedicated hotspot all...
For my f150 and main rig, i agree which i why I spent a good amount on proper tires. This is going on my wife's LR4 an i have found that with the kids she isn't too pleased with me when i take her on anything more then a mild-medium trail, lol. I just like planning for the future and hopefully...
